Nice to see the "Venkys Out" flag on Elche TV

Any subs yet?

Our shirts this season (of all seasons) are not the correct design. Where are the original quarters? Or as some would have it, "The halves reversed on the back".

I think PNE are in danger of relegation this season.

Par for the course. I reckon most people working for Rovers now have never met the owners.

Shame we may lose Garrett. I always liked him. Edmondson scored at Harrogate didn't he. Another one I hoped would make the first team.

I wish I knew the squad, especially the subs. Who is the goalkeeper and the lad with a double-barrel name?

I love this new away kit. Much better than the pink stuff.

Fixed it for you

England lasses through on penalties against Sweden. Worst penalty shoot out I've ever seen. 7 penalties each. 3-2

Didn't realise Nyambe was at Derby. They'll soon be changing their name to Derby Rovers.

Going back to the interviews of substituted players, I'm looking forward to........ "Are you a bit angry at being taken off the field?" "I'm fucking livid. Now piss off!"

And Blackpool

Riverside is fantastic. Try it.

Back to the weird Venkys (aka Raos)......... Only two things stand out in my mind 1) Saving face 2) Snowball (revenge) I cannot understand beyond this.

I'm not renewing. Poor facilities in the Riverside but better leg room and easier steps. Also nearer the pitch, even in row 24. My reasons are mainly due to age. Too many games will be moved from 3pm Saturday. Too many games will be in the evenings. I don't like driving in the dark. Besides, Sky show EFL matches outside 3pm Sat KOs. Of course I'm sick of the owners and their lack of ambition for the club. They are running it into the ground. Horrible! I'll still be cheering the lads on from my armchair even though they can't hear me. I'll attend the odd Saturday afternoon game but a Tuesday night game in mid winter is not for me.

So glad that Sunderland won. For about 70 minutes they were second best. But they have always seemed to be a team of rubbish first half but better second half. IMO they were the best team to visit Ewood this season followed by Sheff Utd. Good luck to them.

I remember the Cambridge United manager saying Rovers have absolutely no chance against Leicester City after his team were walloped 5-0.

Or just a struggle

I want JRC to stay. I think he's a good player. He's been played out of position far too many times. He is a right sided attacking midfielder. Rather have him as back up to Tronstad and Travis than Forshaw.

Pity it wasn't a mass exodus at ownership level.

The first game I remember was the season opener at Ewood in 1951 when we lost 5-1 to Sheffield United. I was eight years old at the time. But we obtained the services of Elvy, Kelly, Quigley and Holmes and that season finished really well with us losing out by one goal to the great Newcastle United (undeservedly) in the FA Cup semi final replay. My Dad had taken me on before this but I wasn't much interested. So may or may not have been on before 47er. It was usually Stand B of the Nuttall St. Later sometimes the Enclosure with me sitting on the bench over the wall.

Players we must get shut of for me would be Dennis, Woodrow, Hedges, Forshaw, ACB, Weimann and Vale. I'd keep Sanderson. Hope Dolan stays but I don't think he will. Keep JRC, Buckley and Leonard. I'd also keep and have a look at Markanday and Garrett. Don't want to lose any more from the rest.

I've got Sky Sports+. I selected the WBA game, then pressed red button which didn't really do anything, then pressed the return button which, thankfully, gave me a choice of all games. I've got Sky Glass btw.

If North End lose and Hull and Luton draw they are down; unless Derby lose at home to Stoke by more than 4 goals (highly unlikely)
